    Actually no, your video is just another loop of worthless political smut. Please find a link below to the actual transcript of the hearings from which your trash was sliced-and-diced. You may be particularly interested in this exchange that somehow did not make it into the video...

    Rep. FRANK: Let me ask you, Mr. Secretary—and again I appreciate that there is not a lot of rhetoric in here about how terrible [the GSE's] are. I appreciate that you think we should enhance the regulation, but I get the impression that you were talking more about guarding against potential future problems developing, rather than feeling that there is an urgent need to stave off some crisis. Are we in a crisis now with these entities?
    Treas. Sec. SNOW: No, that is a fair characterization, Congressman Frank, of our position. We are not putting this proposal before you because of some concern over some imminent danger to the financial system for housing; far from it.

    Far from it. Far from it, he says. Even the administration's pointman on this particular effort to squeeze the life out of the GSE's and hand more and more of their secondary mortgage market share over to the cowboy capitalists on Wall Street admits up front and in no uncertain terms that the administration does NOT see any existing or looming crisis in the GSE's at all. Isn't that interesting?

    I hate to break this news to you, Jimmy, but you and these TP-Republicans are helping to breed whole new generations of people who always vote for Democrats simply out a sense of total disgust with you know who.

    Yeah. The OWS folks and moocher fringe are attracting all of America's best and brightest to their ranks. :roll:

    The GOP has to put a few planks in their platform encouraging both anarchy and largesse at the gubmit teat, or they have no hope of getting those voters back. :roll:

    Or perhaps the GOP will have to make a calculated decision to let them go and cement Obama's legacy :)

    you are very correct, Radio Refugee.

    This discussion was very revealing.

    We can thank the Democrats and the powerful teachers' unions for the sorry shape of our schools in the big metropolitan cities!

    I can't wait to watch the returns and see Obama go down in flames.

    Michelle will be so disappointed she in desperation will hold an "Occupy White House" political rally! All the socialists in this group will surely attend!

    Ha-ha!

    You are correct, Trinnity,

    I thought no no one could be worse than Jimmy Carter, but I was mistaken!

    Taxpayers don't pay for any of the Obama's vacations or other personal travel, James. They don't pay if Obama is working late and asks the White House kitchen to send up a pastrami sandwich either.

    Yes, you were very mistaken. About half our Presidents have been worse than Jimmy Carter, including of course -- and by a wide margin -- George W Bush. But not Barack Obama. Ending the Great Bush Recession and guiding the plan to return from the brink of global depression will alone put him well up the charts. Passing HCR will further reinforce his ranking, as will having decimated the upper echelons of what was once al Qaeda. Thanks to Obama, your grandkids will grow up having to ask what al Qaeda was.

    Keep repeating your deceitful mantra. It will comfort you when Obama is tossed out of office on his butt next year.

    Ha! Even as we speak the White House is altering chunks of their unpopular white elephant legislation http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politic...nes-unfulfilled-promises-of-health-care-bill/ .
    Yes, Obama's ranking will certainly be reflected by this unmitigated blunder that will not survive for long, once Obama is out of office.

    :roll: Obama to his credit, is continuing the programs of Bush when it comes to hunting down Al Qaeda leaders (something Bush was mercilessly criticized for by lefties like you, when he was in office). But make no mistake...Obama is only picking the fruit from the tree that Bush planted.

    You'd better find a candidate. As of now, I don't know if there is one from the field of stumblebums that can keep Obama under 60% of the popular vote.

    Ha! Your link is to a dimwit Jake Tapper piece describing no such alterations at all. It's a recitation of what insurance companies can still do now (such as jacking up rates by 9%) that they won't be able to do as the various provisions of HCR phase in.

    We've been struggling for a hundred years to find a path toward a national health care system. Now that we have that path, it won't be going away.

    Abu Ghraib had nothing to do with tracking down al Qaeda leaders. Neither did Gitmo nor rendition nor torture nor lawless wiretapping. It was the means Bush used to pursue useless targets while producing limited results of value that was more than due the criticism it received.

    It is a tree that Clinton planted and Bush completely ignored until 9/11 came as a wake-up call. Which he then misstrategerized into the pointless Invasion of Iraq.

    You are very correct, Yosh Shmenge.

    Thanks to Obama, Uncle Sam's plantation these days is alive and well!

    First let me console you. Unchecked delusions of grandeur can be dangerous. And secondly, Mitt Romney is beating Obama head to head and that can only increase as he draws a bead on Obama after losers like Rick Perry and Herman Cain go away. Let Obama try and defend one of the worst records any president has ever run up.

    But you know Obama and his evil flying monkey minions are busy trying to change and alter his health care law so somebody likes it...right? http://thehill.com/blogs/healthwatc...mentation/187697-hhs-to-suspend-class-program
    I'm sure this is not news to you.


    I fully agree that health reform is needed. But Obama's massive Frankenstein monster legislation is not the way. Once he's gone, it's gone (though the Supreme Court may beat him to it).


    Ironically it was Bush's "useless" information extraction techniques
    that led to the location of Bin Laden so Seals were able to go and shoot him in the head. So why would you claim what you claim?


    See the above point.

    You are correct, Never Left.

    This review was very good.

    "But the economy has remained so weak that an analysis of long-term unemployment data suggests that about 2 million people have used up 99 weeks of checks and still can't find work."

    The sad thing is, I know you are serious. Though after 9/11 I have to agree about "W" on domestic policy. Obama is about to abbandon our friends in favor of our enemies. I have no idea what you are talking about in your praise for Chairman Obama, he is an utter failure at everything all the time. He has not done one single solitary thing right. Not one.

    All of O'Bama's economic policies have been consumed by the fires of reality and the ashes have piled up at his feet, though he has not noticed that they are a failure of biblical proportions.

    I like Barrack bin Husseini O'bama. Most incompetent Hombre` in the western hemisphere. Though I will concede that not many conteneders are to be found in the eastern hemisphere as well, Mugabe and Ahmanutjob come to mind.

    Mugabe and Ahmanutjob and Obama certainly share many of the same political beliefs!

    As you have learned on many an occasion, they are not delusions. Or would you perhaps care to speak further on the "tight as a drum" security that exists along Mexico's southern border?

    Pulled us out of the recession. Pulled us out of Iraq. Offed bin Laden. Helped off Qaddafi. Didn't spend $3 trillion on either one. Saved the auto companies. Enacted the beginnings of health care reform. Working on energy reform. Long series of other steps forward, from S-CHIP to the Korean free trade agreement. Only whackjobs refuse to recognize the record.

    And where is Romney's base again? Blacks, Hispanics, women? Public sector employees? Fundie Christians? Laissez-faire whackos? Will he dare even to enter the race in Iowa and risk being crushed by evangelicals and branded once again as a big-time loser? Nobody actually likes Romney. He has negative scores on empathy and honesty. He so far profits only from the simple insanity and unsuitability of other self-styled Republican candidates. He withers and dies if or when he ever loses that cover.

    LOL. They haven't changed or altered anything. The bean-counters have said that they are halting work on developing a long-term care package because in the current economic environment, they cannot craft a viable system that remains within the minimums and maximums that Congress originally established for the program. They may start again whenever they like, or they may go back and ask Congress to set different parameters. But again, it's not surprising that you don't have a rational understanding of the points you try to raise. This has long been the pattern of your posts.

    You don't know what's in HCR even though it HAS been passed. Something that you and yours would call a "massive Frankenstein monster" provides better overall health care at much lower cost to the populations of virtually every other developed nation on earth. Retrogrades will not be forcing a legislative step backward. And just to be on the safe side, you might want to be brushing up on language to brand at least Justice Kennedy as some form of traitorous closet socialist.

    It was President Obama single-handedly and alone who came up with the strategy that brought about the effective assassination of Osama Bin Laden. Thank God for President Obama.
    -- Guess who?

    Otherwise, you might want to double-check to verify that you actually know the difference between Ibn Shaikh al-Libi, Anas al-Libi, and Abu Faraj al-Libi.

    Christians have much more in common with them than Obama does.
